Nancy Pelosi Heckled At Town Hall Over Debt Bill: "Sell-Out"

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi was heckled several times at a town hall meeting in response to her vote for the "Satan sandwich" debt ceiling bill in Oakland, California.

Pelosi received the crowd's wrath after touting that the Democrats were able to get no cuts in entitlements in the deal. However, this was still not enough.

"Sell-out!" ... "Why did you vote for it?" ... "You voted for that Satan sandwich!" were just some of the phrases that were yelled at Pelosi.

The Democrats have a tough position: They are human. Am I happy with how much they gave up? No. But considering they were trying to not hold the country hostage like the T (for Terrorist) Party, well, where do you draw the line?

They grudgingly paid the ransom and the hostage was temporarily released. I don't think anyone disputes that.

Stocks have plunged upon the realization that there are people in Congress who would actually prefer to damage the country by forcing a default than allow a simple, uncontroversial process like increasing the debt ceiling to happen without grandstanding.
